In our secret dark place between Twin Lakes When I told you I wish you’d seen the look on your face It’s a lot to take in my friend, but we’ll be fine As I touched your hair, I tried to explain That the darkness inside no longer causes me pain The choices I’ve made have not always been mine Carve your name in the wood and feel no shame This place where you lay will one day mark your grave We became something no good and I’m to blame When white turns to grey and then to black it can’t be saved There’s a part of this that’s wrong but it ain’t no thing Just creates another moment for me to sing It’s hard to go back when the black consumes your mind It’s not hard to reminisce when I feel like this But the past is pulling at me, I don’t wanna resist I’ll become tomorrow what they wanted then in no time. Carve your name in the wood and feel no shame This place where you lay will one day mark your grave We became something no good and I’m to blame When white turns to grey and then to black it can’t be saved

Your Own Private Landfill (free) 05:03
lyrics

The trash is taking over It's spreading from its pile When the paramedics get here They’ll move single-file A heap of dirty laundry Dishes that smell vile For them to find your body It just might take a while Collection of possessions You've had since you were five It's your own private landfill To throw away your life Buried under the mess that you’ve made Scary blunder, but now it’s too late A decade’s worth of junk mail Strewn across the floor A box of broken light bulbs What do you need that for? Souvenirs from Seattle You went back in ‘94 Brought back a nasty habit Forgot how to do your chores Collection of possessions You've had since you were five It's your own private landfill To throw away your life Buried under the mess that you’ve made Scary blunder, but now it’s too late WHEN YOU DIE THEY'LL GO THROUGH YOUR ROOM

Beyond tall oaks in some old wood Who’s limbs reach out and lash Where once the Sacred Heart had stood Now lies a mount of ash Inside the hearth where fires burn Invoking waves of sleep Enter the gates and you will learn The secrets of the deep SAVE ME THIS TIME - SAVE ME TONIGHT Upon the back of a white horse Our mystic starts her ride Traversing through this moonlit course This places mysteries hide With blood upon her daggers blade And runes upon the floor Adorned with mixtures she has made When darkness asks for more SAVE ME THIS TIME - SAVE ME TONIGHT
